She Won’t Call

Even worse, why in the world would you forsake the principles that got the girl in the first place? To you Psych majors, if a company builds its reputation on great service and it starts giving lousy service, its customers will walk away. That would come under the heading of “Common Sense.”

Camille shouldn’t initiate contact with you, guy. And by the way, I hope you’re not lavishly praising this lady for her beauty. Like my cousin Brother Love down in Watts says, “She hears that from everybody, dog. She don’t need to hear it from you too.” But you’re wrong in not wanting to initiate contact with her. Hey, man, you’re the aggressor. But you’re not going to charge in like Bush on the way to Baghdad. Instead, you’re going to pace yourself; you’re going to take measured steps. To all you thickheads out there who don’t understand me, you’re going to go in SLOWLY.

be old-fashioned, but be shrewd

The great part about being gorgeous, like your lady friend, is that you don’t have to initiate contact with anybody. Like my cousin General Love says, “There are too many soldiers willing to commit telephone blunders as it is.” But it’s great that your friend waits for the man to make a move before she responds. Artie, you should buy 10 pounds of candy and 200 roses for your friend because she gives great advice — this is fantastic. Of course it’s acceptable to do it this way.

But what’s going to make you different from all the other guys? You’re not going to be a sap who does everything the woman wants you to do; you’re going to set Camille up and you’re going to work shrewdly and smartly with a strategy.

How do you deal with a woman who won’t call you? You follow my guidelines. All the advice you need is between the covers of my book — the one you supposedly knew at one time, but somehow got rusty at because you stopped playing by the rules.

camille is a keeper

I like the way Camille is acting. This is a good, conservative girl. You’re going to proceed nice and slow with her because this is the kind of girl you want. The typical girl goes out with you one time and she’s texting you 50 times the next day. Something’s wrong with that girl.

You won’t inundate Camille with e-mail while she’s away. The most you’ll do is wait eight or nine days and drop her a note that says, “Tell me about the fun you’re having on your vacation.” And you’ll answer her messages when she’s gone. If you can live with it, you’ll have to go along with her program because of the way this girl is built. But like my Uncle Jethro Love says, “After you’re with her for 40 or 50 years, let me know how you’re holding up.”

gauge her interest level

Camille can do what she wants with your little e-mail. But with her answer, if you have my materials internalized, you’ll be able to see through her Womanese and really figure out her Interest Level — because you’ll be giving her a chance to come back to you with something. Hopefully she’ll respond with, “When I get back, we’ll get together for sure.”

The point is that you’re looking for something, and hopefully she’ll throw that something into her reply. That’s why you’re doing it this way, Artie. Like I said, you’re operating smart here and like my cousin Sal “The Fish” Love says: “You never go straight in with a woman. You gotta work the angles and the side shots like Oscar De La Hoya.”
